Phenotypic and molecular characterization of Hessian fly resistance in diploid wheat, Aegilops tauschii.

abstract：BACKGROUND:There are two plant phosphorus (P)-uptake pathways, namely the direct P uptake by roots and the indirect P uptake through arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Maximizing the efficiency of root and AMF processes associated with P acquisition by adjusting soil conditions is important for simultaneously ensuring...
